My hands shook as I thanked the woman beside me, my voice barely holding. I turned and pushed through the restroom door with my heels clicking too loud in my ears. My heart was pounding like it wanted to rip free.

The moment I was out of sight, I pulled my phone out with clumsy fingers and typed fast.

Kieran something is up. I have to leave now. Please do not worry about me. I will explain everything when you get back.

I stared at the screen for a second, thumb hovering. I knew I should have called him. I knew it. But if I did call him, it won't be easy for him to let go and he'll just end up keeping me here longer.

I sent the text.

My chest felt tight as I slipped the phone back into my clutch. I lifted my head and scanned the hall, already plotting an escape. I kept my chin down and moved fast, praying nobody would recognize me. I could already spot several colleagues laughing and talking close by.People I worked with. People wh
